Maxwell Hall is home to the University Division advisors as well as several other small programs that Indiana University offers.

It was constructed in 1890, and dedicated on January 20th, 1891. Originally named Library Hall, it was renamed Maxwell Hall in 1894 to honor Dr. David H. Maxwell.

Mitchell Hall was originally named Maxwell Hall, until Library Hall was renamed, at which time it was also renamed.

In December of 1907, the library was moved to Franklin Hall.

The Indiana University Museum was formally organized and first housed in Maxwell Hall in 1963.
